Teh cost to adopt is impossibel to predict without knowing all the facts. If both of the biological parents agree, then it will be cheaper. If you are somhow related to one of the biological parnets, that will make it cheaper. If you have already adopted a sibling of the child, that will make it cheaper. If you have already complterd any of hte State foster/adopt programs, that will make it cheaper. Absent all of that, the cost to do a domestic adoption (including moderate attorney fees) range from $5,000 -$15,000.

Good luck
